Did you know that for several decades, the Minnesota River has been considered one of the most polluted rivers in the country? 

Join us on Wednesday, July 16 at noon for our webinar “Safeguarding the Minnesota River: legal solutions to agricultural pollution” to learn more about where that pollution comes from and the legal tools we have to help clean up this important watershed. 

In 2008, the Minnesota River was listed on American Rivers’ top 10 most endangered rivers in the U.S. Today, excessive sediment and nutrient concentrations remain a serious problem for our state’s namesake river. Join MCEA Chief Legal Officer Leigh Currie, MCEA Water Program Director Carly Griffith, and Patrick Belmont, a professor in the Department of Watershed Sciences at Utah State University, to learn more about this pressing issue. This free webinar will be eligible for one CLE credit for lawyers interested in legal inroads to protecting our environment.
